Detectors

One of the most common detectors seen on a transmission electronmicroscope is the x-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS or EDX) system. This typically involves a large dewar for liquid nitrogen (to keep the detector cold), an arm on which the equipment sits, and a solid state detector that penetrates the column (arrow) so it is located near the sample.
